For the guy who is always well put together, it’s hard to go wrong with a fresh, clean fragrance – and John Varvatos XX Artisan Teal is just about ideal in that category. This citrusy, airy eau de toilette doesn’t even remotely overpower, so it’s safe for offices. It has a light lemon-peppery top note, with a salty-woody basenote. It smells like summer, basically. It’s technically a men’s fragrance, but in my opinion it’s the kind that wives and girlfriends will borrow. The bottle presentation is what clinches it as gift worthy, with the woven-rope casing over the Caribbean-colored glass. Does he have a summer birthday, or is the beach or lake his happy place? Then you may want to grab this now, while it’s on sale.
